A fractional-3-limit notation is a kind of musical notation built on a chain-of-fifths notation, which is used for notating EDOs when the EDO has no obvious mapping from just intonation, while preserving the notation of subsets. Fractional-3-limit notations may be contrasted with two other kinds of chain-of-fifths notation for EDOs: JI-based notations like "good fifths" Sagittal notations which assume specific JI mappings, and step-count notations like Ups and Downs notations which do not preserve the notation of subsets. Fractional-3-limit notations assign symbols to specific fractions of some
